I have no idea how she ended up in intensive care but I think we were all expecting her to recover and it's been a huge blow. Someone asked a few days ago whether we have pet names for our peregrines - perhaps it might be fitting to name the female after Froona? Just a thought, a sign of respect.

Ive been glued to this site since i discovered it while living in Derby in 2007.

I am however such a sad case that I don't need that particular one because I wrote it all down at the time! So glad to hear some better news about Froona. I continue to wish her well - it's so strange and sad not to be getting her input. We have a lovely day down here too, Nick. I have no excuse for not having been up the allotment and put in my seed potatoes! I MUST do so tomorrow and not sit here looking at peregrines!!! And thanks for the further news about the cathedral - I really look forward to re-visiting there too, not least because of your fine musical tradition (I'm also a choral singer - my choir are coming up to a performance of Haydn's "Creation" - a fine counterpoint to this, Darwin's big year)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-58088793364345215322009-04-04T16:35:00.000+01:002009-04-04T16:35:00.000+01:00I am so sorry to hear about Froona's illness &...I am so sorry to hear about Froona's illness & wish her a speedy and full recovery.Terry, Hertsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-5623178380664058372009-04-04T15:35:00.000+01:002009-04-04T15:35:00.000+01:00For numerous 'Froona' fans.

When I see questions, I generally know that somebody somewhere asked before and the answer is back on the archive - just like this batch will someday be. I wonder if it would eventually be possible to have a link with all of this basic info - plus perhaps the table of dates of significant events in previous years, so we can all see the trends over time. Ha ha, as if you don't all have enough to do! The whole team has indeed done fantastically well and I know much of it is way above and beyond the call of duty - in fact a real labour of love. Thank you team - and hope all are well on the way to complete recovery.
